"And see the so called soldier self? That's how with primary school certificate they would be insulting professors and people's whose taxes pay their salary, this is one major issue with Africa. We arm thugs and people with the lowest thinking capacity and we expect them to act rationally, if there's any reason for staying away from Nigeria, it's the people we have armed to protect us, police, army and the rest that have been given guns, worse thing is legislators don't see anything wrong with it."
"People should rise up against these people, the i mind my own business mentality is what's killing us."

"The only reason why my fellow man will do this to me is because he is 'strapped'. Otherwise, whoever you are, I will wrestle you! And probably mess you up before your colleagues arrive!"
